  1. I remember Gov Wallace well. Santos is no different. Makes me sick. Keep the pressure on these fools. Never let up on them

    1. What exactly is the problem with antiriot? Do you know multiple black men in MN had their business burned to the ground?

    2. Ok, explain with detail how he’s “no different”. Tired of ppl leaving comments that amount to “I agree with everything you said”. Explain how he’s just like Wallace. Explain it. I bet money you can’t. I’ll literally cashapp you 20 right now if you can explain the similarities. How is giving ppl the option to protect their lives instead of being pulled from their cars and beaten anything like what Wallace did? You’re full of crap. Just a mindless cultist. That’s what you are

  2. Thank you for covering this! I was born in FL but DeSantis makes it increasingly miserable for me here.

    1. @Django Is Back look, we get it, you’re mad because you’re not allowed to loot Targets for iPhones and nike shoes, harass drivers, and burn whatever you want… anymore 👍

    2. @Joe Kingman That never happened in FL. There were no riots going on when he cracked down on first amendment rights.

    3. @Science Nonfiction there are practically no riots because Florida was very clear that they will not protect the rioters like other states. This is again making it clear that protest is fine, violence and property damage will NOT be tolerated.

      Best state in the Union.

  3. “Making it ok to run over people because you don’t like their protesting for equality? That seems a bit harsh.” – V. Putin
    😳😬 😂🤣

    1. What do you mean by equality? Do you really think you can start protesting to be equal in wealth with Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates. Those people did acquire their wealth through protests. They created stuffs and solved human problems and wealth followed them. Please you are free to explain the kind of equality you are talking about because you are really sounding stupid

  4. The very Traps & Snares they are planting for others WILL BE WHAT THEY & Theirs FALL IN TO!!!😉

  5. Protesting peacefully is guaranteed in The Constitution. These states that are infringing on our right to protest peacefully, will find their ” anti riot “/protest suppression legislation challenged in the United States Supreme Court. I have absolutely no doubt of this.

    1. @mptemplin our problem is with the public presentation of the bill by senior law enforcement. They talked about Antifa and BLM like those were the groups this bill targeted. Fact of the matter it has been proven hoodie wearing white supremacy individuals were smashing windows and starting fires during peaceful protests. They wanted a riot and tough police response.

    2. @jbknight311

      That has not been proven. Unless it was some really dark complected “white supremacists”.

      The error in your thinking is thinking that you leftists are the only ones with video cameras.

    1. @ISD

      Cryin about what? Y’all not being able to play in traffic?

      “I can’t breathe…”

      From laughing so hard😂

    2. @Spring is Here! No.
      The fear lies within you and those like you, which is why those like you in power, change laws in order to avoid accountability for your racism, and inferiority complexes, that have and will always plague you and is visible as you carry it on your shoulders and sleeves. The fear of equality will always plague those like yourselves, along with ignorance and hatred for anyone that is not white and or brainwashed to hate or condescend to Black ppl.

  6. These (r)epublicans have lost thier minds!! Just wait till these judges get fed up and have to deal with these crazy, illegal laws in thier courtrooms..🤔 Yea, this is going to go real well…

    1. @Nun Ya what’s YOUR solution to the hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage “peaceful protestors” have done?

    1. @al ntr

      More crime equals more attention by cops. It’s not that hard to understand. Lol

    2. @Gary Sanders, And surely cops shooting unarmed Black People is not the right or duty of police officers. The problem is a no-brainer. How often do you hear of a Black cop shooting an unarmed Black person??? And those that defend this behavior are racist.

    3. @Paul Robinson since 2015, 6211 people shot by police. 2883 or 46% were white, 1496 or 24% were black. Way to many people are being shot, however It’s not as unbalanced as the biased media wants you to believe.

    4. A 6-3 Republican majority with three Trump appointees will find ways not to consider this. Let’s see how black car drivers are indemnified when accidentally hitting the Proud Boys and co if they are blocking their path.

  7. People don’t realize DeSantis is more cunningly scheming. He treacherous dangerous. DOJ needs to stop him.

    1. @therealhumanguineapig You didn’t even have any point in the first place. You were just displaying your stupidity and ignorance. 😋

    2. Is that why you support letting small businesses be vandalized and roads blocked? Who cares if pregnant mothers and medical emergencies need to use the roadways am I right?

    3. @MRJTV – good thing I pay attention to more than just what Joy Reid says then, huh? I also listen to Rachel Maddow, Brian Williams, Chris Wallace, Tucker Carlson, Ari Melber, Anderson Cooper, Sean Hannity, Don Lemon, Michael Smerconish, Brianna Keilar, and George Stephanopoulos, just to name a few – and those are only the newscasters, lol! I’m sorry you are feeling “butthurt” and cannot see better for yourself right now! You have my pity and my deepest sympathies! Maybe one day you will learn better if you keep working on bettering yourself. Being a total crackhead or it’s equivalent can only be entertaining for so long, I imagine! Good luck!

    4. @therealhumanguineapig It is good that you pay attention to all these people you mentioned above. I don’t have any problem with you being a liberal. I myself, I’m socially liberal but fiscally conservative. One thing is to pay attention to the talking heads on the TV, another thing is to be able to understand the message they spread. These people you mentioned above are not in the news section of their respective media organization. They offer their opinions. For instance, if you are listening to Tucker Carlson, he is not broadcasting the news. He is only sharing his opinion on the things happening which could political, economic, social etc. The same thing applies to people like Don lemon, Cris Cuomo etc. When you are listening to Don lemon, he is sharing his opinion with you. He is not really sharing with you what actually happened. Don lemon will try as much as possible to to paint what’s happening in accordance with his political views. I chose to follow the Republican party because, I don’t like lawlessness. If you are voting for the democratic party, either you don’t actually know what you are voting for or you are naturally a lawless and immoral person. You may need to ask yourself why people are moving from blue states to red states. California, New York, Illinois etc are losing congressional seats and florida, texas are gaining seats. There is a reason why people move to places. That should open your eyes.

  8. His speech sounds like he is tryin to convince himself.really well fl better wake up cuz desantis is klanin

  9. The GQP has lost it’s f-ing mind!

    We love the Pacific Northwest, come visit and attend one of our protests. Most are gentle enough to bring your families.

    1. @Joseph Stanhope plus you’re not even correct lmfao, he’s using four periods, not eclipses.

      Pretty embarrassing

    2. @Gary Sanders Pro-tip – “Eclipses” are not the same thing as “Ellipses”. Also, thanks for proving me right when I called you a pedantic prat 👍

    3. @Joseph Stanhope

      Why are you repeating the lie that there is property damage from NFL football games?

  10. Cannot help thinking this is not America but some tin pot country emerging out of a swamp then sinking back into it covered with ooze and slime

  11. On the night of the conclusion of the Chauvin trial, De Santis signed into law a new tax law that would increase taxes for out if state online purchases by individuals and reduce taxes for corporates in Florida

  12. This action that they have taken will come back and bite them. If it doesn’t happen right now it will happen later and the next generation will pay for it.
